Suddenly a madman sharpens his knife at night

Chapter 18 Supernatural Power Promotion

He raised his head and scanned inch by inch, his eyes focused, and he stood up forcefully regardless of his body's weakness.

There is one spot on the ceiling that is darker than the surrounding area.

It was like water stains. If Lu Hu hadn't looked carefully, he wouldn't have been able to spot it.

The position was above the bed. If Lu Hu lay down, it would be facing his head.

He stood on the bed and reached out to touch it.

The moment his fingertips touched the "water stain", the familiar, biting coldness immediately made Lu Hu extremely sure that last night was definitely not a dream!

"Yesterday, there really was an evil spirit occupying my room!"

Lu Hu was shocked. The martial arts in this world were already mysterious, making him think that this was a world similar to martial arts, where knights wielded swords and practiced martial arts.

Who would have thought that now that even ghosts and monsters have appeared, are there still cultivators of immortality and Taoism here?
  The morning sun continued to rise, and the sunlight shining into the room became more and more intense. Soon, the "water stains" above the head dissipated like ice and snow, as if they had never appeared.

Lu Hu sat on the bed, his mind numb with thoughts.

“At that time in my dream, on the death fighting stage, there was a black shadow strangling my neck. I guess it was the evil ghost’s attack. Fortunately, I had developed my strength and was not killed by the evil ghost in my dream.

This ghost is probably the result of the resentment of those who died under my fists. Those who came to seek my life should not let me go easily. If this attack fails, there will probably be another one.

And it is very likely that tonight, I will practice the last move of Black Tiger Fist. It will be useful if the opponent is also talented! "

He recalled that before, his energy collapsed under the attack of coldness on his body.

That is to say, he made a mistake and used his anger to draw out the evil spirit from his own murder, and he was able to survive until dawn.

"Tonight, can I resist the attack of evil spirits?"

Lu Hu thought for a while and felt depressed. The wrongdoer has the owner and the debtor has the owner. He asked for his life to go to the senior officials of the Senluo Society and find him. What kind of thing is this?
  "Oh~ I should have thought of it earlier. After all, even if things like supernatural powers appear and evil ghosts exist in the world, don't be surprised!

By the way, I have supernatural powers! "

Lu Hu suddenly remembered that he had swallowed Qi and Blood Pills at night, and his magical power should have reached 100% after taking it. Now he quickly took a look at the changes. Maybe his turning point lies in his magical power!
  He opened the light curtain in his mind and saw it.

[Supernatural Power Master]: Lu Hu
  [Race]: human

[Supernatural power]:
  Taking (100%) can be upgraded: absorb the essence and strengthen the body.

【Luck】：1.2
  A golden light appeared in the words "can be promoted" behind the progress of taking magical powers.

Lu Hu was overjoyed and touched the golden characters with his mind.

With a touch, the text changes instantly.

The promotion path of magical food consumption: gluttony (consuming 1.0 luck), swallowing (consuming 1.0 luck), sucking (consuming 5.0 luck)

I didn't expect that the promotion of magical powers would allow me to choose, and I finally understood what the use of luck was.

"You don't even give an explanation for this magical power. You just let me guess and choose!"

Lu Hu was in a bit of a dilemma. The luck consumed by promotion was the largest, and the effect should be the most powerful. However, his current luck was not enough, so being strong had nothing to do with him. He had to rule it out first.

If you understand gluttony and devouring literally, the former should highlight the amount, so that you can eat more at one time?

The latter prominently features the word swallow, which makes it difficult to guess.

"Is it because you don't need to chew when you eat in the future? The digestion capacity of the stomach becomes stronger?"

There was so little information that Lu Hu made random guesses, which seemed unreliable.

"Seizing the main contradiction, the biggest problem I face now is that I will probably be attacked by evil spirits tonight. The magical power I choose now should be effective against evil spirits. Otherwise, everything will stop in the future, and I will continue to eat gluttonously. I’m somewhat confident, and I’m basically certain that it won’t bring any benefit to tonight’s situation, so I can only choose to devour it and take a gamble!”

Lu Hu had an idea in his mind, so he no longer hesitated and directly clicked on the swallowing option with his mind.

Suddenly, the words flickered, the light screen turned completely black, and then words emerged.

[Supernatural Power Master]: Lu Hu
  [Race]: human

[Supernatural power]:
  Swallow (0%): Swallow the essence to strengthen your body.

【Luck】：0.2
  Lu Hu saw that his luck points had been spent, but the introduction of the magical power was too perfunctory, just changing two words.

"That's it?"

His face looked a little ugly. This had nothing to do with evil spirits. Was it a wrong bet?

Unexpectedly, the promotion of the magical power that he had longed for would have such a result.

The sound of a gurgling wheelbarrow sounded outside the door.
  Li Duba came to serve the meal.

When Li Muba was getting food, Lu Hu found that there were no rice bowls in several rooms.

"This is this?" Lu Hu raised his eyebrows, and Li Muba turned to those rooms, looked outside the iron window, and then opened the iron door and went in.

After a while, I saw him rushing out and disappearing directly from the small door on the side.

After a while, Li Shan and three men in black hurried over, entered the room, and then they carried the dead body out.

Lu Hu didn't even eat at this time. He put his head on the iron window pole and looked out.

When I saw the person being carried out, his face was ashen, his mouth was wide open, he was stiff, and there were brown spots on his face.

"Could it be that they were also attacked by evil spirits?"

Lu Hu saw that the people who were carried out had their mouths wide open and their hands clenched tightly, as if they were drowning.

He had the answer in his mind and took the opportunity to ask Li Shan what was going on. Li Shan had a gloomy face and ignored him. He and several men in black just carried the body away without saying a word.

"After all, the Senluo Society has a big tree and deep roots. It's not like we don't know that there are ghosts in the world. Although we are all slaves, we still make money for them after all, so we should be able to take care of it!"

Lu Hu thought to himself and finished the meal quickly.

During the absorption process, I unexpectedly found that I got more nutrients from food than before.

"After all, I have been promoted. If there is no change at all, it would be a big mistake!"

Lu Hu felt a little relieved after finding out, but there was also a disadvantage, that is, one meal could provide 2% of the progress of magical powers, but now it suddenly dropped to 0.5%.

If you want to improve your magical power, both the quality of the food and the time required will be improved.

Lu Hu's body was too exhausted at this time. After drinking the water, he lay on the bed to rest.

Now we need to regain our physical strength and energy as soon as possible while we are safe during the day. We may not have the chance at night.

In bed, I didn't fall asleep as quickly as before, but I tossed and turned in my mind for a while, and then fell asleep when I couldn't resist the sleepiness.

After sleeping until noon, Lu Hu was awakened by the movement outside the door. The Senluo Society's measures had indeed come.

But to his extreme disappointment, a quilt came!
  "It seems that wanting to rely on the Senluo Society is simply wishful thinking. The only person you can rely on is yourself!"
